Video With Steers

We hope you enjoy our short video taken with the steers November 22nd.
Many folks comment back to us how much they enjoy seeing the animals out on the
land.

November 1st we contracted with Dr. Allen Williams to visit our farm and
provide strategic input to our operation. Dr. Williams has extensive
experience building soil health, animal genetics, processing,
carcaus quality, and etc. We spent the day reviewing our cow herd,
completing pasture walks, testing soils, and bull evaluation. Overall he was
complementary of our farm and the progress made to date regenerating our
ecosystem. He did provide a couple of recommendations. First, suspected some of
the paddocks fungi to bacteria ratio is out of balance and he provided a source
to help correct this. Second, he suggested we upgrade our bulls and provided a
reputable source. This is something we had already planned to do before next
spring. We will invest in a Red Angus bull(s) whose ultra-sound test will
improve our herd backfat, ribeye shape, inter-muscular fat ratio, and
tenderness.

Lastly, we hope you find it easy to do business with Nature's Gourmet Farm. If
at any time you have questions or concerns we appreciate your feedback. While
we are not perfect AND do make mistakes from time to time, we do try hard to
correct any issues.

Their food is exceptional! Their integrity is refreshing! S. Daspit

Quote Worth Re-Quoting – “Imagine if we had a food
system that actually produced wholesome food. Imagine if it produced that food
in a way that restored the land. Imagine if we could eat every meal knowing
these few simple things: What it is we’re eating. Where it came from. How it
found its way to our table. And what it really cost. If that was the reality,
then every meal would have the potential to be a perfect meal. We would not
need to go hunting for our connection to our food and the web of life that
produces it. We would no longer need any reminding that we eat by the grace of
nature, not industry, and that what we’re eating is never anything more or less
than the body of the world. I don’t want to have to forage every meal. Most
people don’t want to learn to garden or hunt. But we can change the way we make
and get our food so that it becomes food again—something that feeds our bodies
and our souls. Imagine it: Every meal would connect us to the joy of living and
the wonder of nature. Every meal would be like saying grace.”
